Pafawag 201E ET22 Byk locomotive

Byk, also known as Helmut, was created in the 1960s as a response to the electrification of Polish lines and the development of the mining and processing industries. The first two ET22 units left the Pafawag factory in Wrocław in 1969, marking the beginning of a fruitful twenty-year production run of this powerful electric locomotive.

Despite their enormous size, the 120-ton ET22 units can reach speeds of up to 125 km/h. The ET22 locomotive was primarily designed for freight transport, but it was also assigned to passenger services. During its twenty years of production, 1184 units of ET22 locomotives were built for PKP, and 23 units for the Moroccan carrier ONCF.  

A mug with the ET22 locomotive is an ideal gift for any railway enthusiast. The Byk is depicted on it with great grace, even despite its colossal dimensions!

The drawing was made by Wrocław artist Paweł Grabowski.
